Abstract: We examine formulations for the well-known b-matching problem in the presence of integer demands on the edges. A subset M of edges is feasible if for each node v, the total demand of edges in M incident to it is at most bv . We examine the system of star inequalities for this problem. This system yields an exact linear description for b-matchings in bipartite graphs. For the demand version, we show that the integrality gap for this system is at least 2 2 and at most 2 5 . For general... (Update)
